CLICK HERE for the episode guide to help you connect with Scripture through this song.To count our blessings is to name them and acknowledge our gratitude for the good things God has blessed us with.

Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture – this week's Bible Interaction Tool Exercises include:
at the Last Supper - Luke 22:17-19, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26, Hebrews 12:2
at the Feeding of the 5000 - John 6:11-13, 23
at the resurrection of Lazarus - John 11:38-44
How miracles, provision, fullness, resurrection, and life are on the other side of giving thanks

sinful people described as NOT giving thanks - Romans 1:21
hypocritical religious man giving thanks in a presumptuous and arrogant fashion - Luke 18:11

Reading Scriptures about giving thanks won’t transform you unless you allow them to inform what you think about giving thanks, and then actually PRACTICE giving thanks.
Spend some time in 1 Thessalonians. Make a list of what Paul is thankful for. Then, make your own list of things you are thankful for. Be imitators of Christ in your eucharisteo. Read about Christ giving
